I'm actually a lyricist who has been perfecting the craft for a number of years. Over the course the past several years, I've had the pleasure of working with some very talented individuals who have done a wonderful job of bringing my lyrics to life, vocally and instrumentally. Most everything featured on this site is in Demo format, as we work to locate the perfect singer for that perfect song. Let's let the music tell the rest of the story. . . .

Story behind the song
Doggone, I'm ready to get married.
Lyrics
If you'd let me have your daughter If you'd let me make her mine Let me ease that mind of yours Loving her would never be a waste of time Because when I give a woman my love I give unselfishly time after time And I guarantee positive returns She'd let you know, daddy, this man is blowing my mind Sure there are guys who are richer And some are quicker to think But, I'm the only one to keep her calling And only I can answer as quick as she can wink My friend, Mr. Jones I speak from my heart and I speak the truth Just extend the same courtesy to me as I have to you There are so many things I want And I've got just as much to give Your daughter is the only woman in the world She's got the power to make a man understand what it is to live My feet are planted to stay Yesterday, today, tomorrow and forever more If you do nothing else, just do this one thing for me Give us your blessing before the moonlight hits the floor Mr. Jones, please extend the same courtesy to me as I have to you I sincerely hope I'm not asking too much of you The girl has my heart, all my things And right now she's wearing my ring
